See The Beauty Inside This Log! - Wood Turning

- This Red Cedar log didn't seem to have much beauty in it when I selected it for today's turning but I don't like to see wood go to waste so it was time. The sap wood was punky and unappealing but I had hopes for the heartwood. In the end, there was still some decent sap wood to provide a wonderful contrast to the beautiful heartwood. I really like the outcome of this turning and hope you do, too!

I cedar what you did there, Phil.
LOL!
On the outside, two holes make the pig's eyes but on the inside those holes and the grain in between make a nice smile!! It is beautiful, wonderful work!! Happy birthday to your daughter! 🙂👍💖
Good call! Thank you, Robin! 😊
I love 💕 turning Cedar. You turn it very well too. Beautiful piece Phil.
Thank you very much, David! 😊
I trust your daughter's weekend was great! Our older daughter turned 50 two days after yours!
That must be the most handsome pig in town Phil. Brought a smile to my face.😂 A beautiful bowl with tons of character. Thanks for another great video
Glad you enjoyed it, Mike, thanks! 😊
It's a beautiful bowl, I'd be proud to have turned it. Does It still have a lot of the wonderful aroma after you turn and wax it?
Beautiful bowl! Can’t wait to start woodturning again after seeing this. Lovely work!
Cool, have a good time with it! 😊
That cedar really pops with the shellac. Great shape. well done.
Yes it does! Thanks, Earl! 😊
I love the way you work with the idiosyncrasies of the wood see the beauty including the feel of the wood.
Thank you, Aliceray! 😊
Love turning aromatic cedar and the bowl is awesome. Thanks for another Wonderphil Thursday. See ya next week!
Thanks a lot, Billy! 😊
Cool bowl Phil 👍
Thanks, Andy! 😊
Happy Birthday to your daughter ❤️ mine is 50 next year
That's awesome 😊
After finding out on Monday I had 4 hernias, I went into surgery and must do nothing for 3 days now. What else to do but learn from a master before I go back to my workshop. I’m gagging to get back after watching Phil. I love the pig. 👍🏻
Heal quickly! 😊
A lovely turn, Phil. I have some 'ugly logs' in my yard, and now you have given me some inspiration to pick one out and see what becomes of it. Many thanks!
Excellent, good luck, David! 😊
An aromatic piggy, how apt! And what a beautiful piggy it is. The colors are so rich and I love the patterns they make. Shenanigans is a great place to get up to on your birthday! I hope your daughter has a wonderful time. I've meant to tell you that I grew up in Des Moines, Washington, not too terribly far from where you are, went to Mt. Rainier HS in the early 70's. A favorite destination with friends was Lake Tapps. Of course the world was pretty different back then. I haven't been back to the old stomping grounds for at least 20 years.
Take care, and thank you for sharing this beautiful bowl!
We were probably at Lake Tapps at the same time, Gwynn! My sister used to live on the lake and I spent many hours swimming and water skiing there in the 70's. Those were the good old days! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop They sure were! 😊
Fun job, going against the grain I like...👆👍👍
Thank you! 😊
Hey Phil been gone for awhile watching the war mostly. Man you doing a great job my friend love that beauty you turned. I haven't forgotten about you just been busy . Happy birthday to your daughter hope it's a wonderful one. Wish I was 50 ha ha
Thanks, Ron! 😊
Phil it never gets old watching you turn out beautiful pieces of art. You have a true God given talent for creating and for doing it so interestingly.
Keep on keeping on!
And happy birthday to your daughter, I have two so I know how special they are!
Wow, thank you, Bob! 😊
Good Evening , Phil
I believe this piece of wood I am sure you will do it Justice !
I hope you like it, Larry! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop
Oh Yes ! Your Skill brought the True Beauty of it for everyone !
Very happy that this log traveled across the country so that you could display the bowl hidden within. Thank you.
Paul.
Me too, Paul, thanks! 😊
Another wonderful Phil Anderson result.
Thanks for watching, Vaughn! 😊
Thank You Phil, Thank You Steve McCool.... Lots of sharpening, silica in the wood, punky sapwood, hole through the log, crack on the side...BUT WHO CARES Phil. You pulled it all together and created beautiful unique masterpiece!!!! Now I have to wait another 7 days for some more MAGIC FROM YOUR LATHE....TM
HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEPHANIE 🍀
Haha, you covered it all, Tuffy! I'll let Steph know of your happy wish for her! I'm glad you like this one, my friend, thank you! 😊
What a beautiful piece. For not having any roots, rocks or other debris in it the piece has character that stands out. Thank you for the video.
Thanks for watching, Dan! 😊
I wonder if that hole isn't from the original sapling having rotted out, or from some other twig or sapling it enveloped as it grew.
Nice job. I respect anyone who turns cedar because of its tendency to crack and fall apart.
😊
Cedar is always beautiful.
Happy BDay to Stephanie!
Thank you, Anna Anna! 😊
Phil, you have definitely NOT lost your touch. This a great piece of woodturning on a lovely piece of Red Cedar as it turned out. I am so glad that there was some decent sap wood as you got down into it because it produced some wonderful contrast to the well known red colouring of the cedar. I also think the 'pig' is quite adorable. I still love the way you virtually hold a 'quiet conversation' with each piece of wood you turn, almost as though you are 'seeking guidance from the piece of wood as to how it wants to have its inner beauty displayed', as you say, "for all to see". Thank you for sharing this my friend. Stay safe & well & keep sharing your brilliant talent with ALL your viewers. Cheers, Don from South Aust.
Thank you so much, Don! I hope and wish for you a happy and healthy weekend! 😊
Thank you for another beautiful project and your step by step dialogue! Truly a tutorial in every video that I appreciate so much! Here in the Ozarks we are blessed (some would say cursed) with an abundance of Eastern Red Cedar.
Happy 50th to Stephanie!🌹 My baby girl just turned 45 last week 🥰
It sure makes for some beautiful turnings, Peter. Might be difficult to turn but so worth the effort, I think. 😊
Happy 50th Baby Stephanie! Welcome, Sherry! Have a blast this weekend. Much love and happiness from a fan of your wonderful dad.
So kind of you, Mauna, thank you, I'll pass along your best wishes to Steph! 😊
This is barry from Australia I love your running commentary you explain well to viewers that don't know tomutch about turning.thanyoi❤
Браво! Мастер! Очень симпатичная ваза. Можно фрукты или конфеты положить! Удачи вам во всех делах и здоровья на долгие годы!
Большое спасибо за просмотр и комментарий! 😊
Wow! What beautiful colour! You are an artist Phil and even though it was a hard turn you made it look e a s y. Thanks Phil. Happy Birthday Stephanie
Thank you so much, Bob! 😊
I never considered eastern red cedar to be high in silica, but when I looked up the southern form, there it is in the name... Juniperus virginiana var. silicicola. Great bowl, as always!
Thanks for the info, Bill! 😊
Another gracious beauty🙏💝
Thank you! 😊 Cheers!
Cedar is beautiful anyway you cut it. Beautiful piece.
😊
Another fabulous piece! I’ve enjoyed dozens of your videos. This morning a friend showed me how to turn a jointer’s mallet from a piece of firewood. I’ve never been on a lathe before but really loved doing it. He is also a big Phil Andersen fan and we would interject your comments quite often.
Thanks to the firewood dealer for providing the wood for this little lopsided box elder jointer’s mallet for all to enjoy!
Very cool, James, thank you very much! 😊
Haha I didn’t see the pig until you pointed it out; that’s a very pretty pig! The bowl is beautiful; I like how you respect the wood you’re working with and always try to bring out its best features. I enjoy watching your talents and listening to your narrations. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much, Beverly! 😊
Absolutely Beautiful! Another sweet dance you've performed w/ mother nature. Very special Phil. Thank You.
Glad you enjoyed it, Joanna, thank you! 😊
Great work mate. Never thought I'd learn so much while thinking I was listening to Wallace Shawn.
😊
That bowl actually looks smooth. I can almost feel the soft contours. Great job Phil. 👍
I wish you could feel it in person, Jerry! 😊
Phil, it’s a beautiful bowl. I call those with holes “trouble bowls”. It’s where you leave your troubles. And they leak out the holes!
Love it, Ned, thank you! 😊
Me too.
That is a wonderful sentiment.
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Thanks very much phill its a good memory
Iooop
Yes, I do like it! You have a deft touch, Phil! Happy Birthday back, to your daughter, Stephanie!
I'll relay your good wishes, Stephanie, thank you! 😊
You sir are a master craftsman.
Off cuts are not wasted while wood turners are about.
Thank you!
Thank you, Pete! 😊
Ive been watching wood turning videos for about two ears and I continue to be amazed! I’m collecting information on tools, equipment and finishing materials used; thank you so much for the great information about what you are using! Maybe I’ll take the leap and look into buying a set up of my own.
Your only regret is that you waited so long, Wendy. It's a great hobby, get to it! 😊
I always appreciate that you explain the tools and procedures you are using.
Great, Thanks, David! 😊
Phil, I've said it before to you and I'm gonna say it again,...I so enjoy watching your videos, all of them. To make things even freakier, I have you on my mind when I'm turning too...different things that I wind up doing on a piece that I'm working on, I find myself saying the same words that you do in your videos, especially when I take off a tenon...HAHAHA. It's meant as a compliment, you have made a great impression on me in my learning how to turn. Thank you so much,...the colors are fantastic and the bowl turned out so beautiful!!!
Well, I absolutely love this, Lori, thank you for your delightful comment which brought a smile to my face this morning! 😊
Like that you explain what's going on with the pice as you go so other geting in this hobby can look for simular problems. Thank for sharing
😊
Good evening, Phil. I really like your cedar bowl. Today I was sharing with another turner, your love of bark and how you remove the tenon. He had just turned a bowl similar to yours. When asked how he was going to remove the tenon, he said he hadn't got that far yet. Said he was going to look up Phil at Shady Acres Wood Shop. You are welcome.
Well, now, this is special to me, Ray, thank you so much! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Phil, you are special to us.
Very nice turning again Phil. Love the finish, how it brings out the color and the grain. Just last week I turned a red cedar bowl and finished it with Howard’s Feed n Wax,which always puts nice sheen and feel on the turning. I swear I could smell it while you were turning!! Keep on turning. Looking for the next one.
Oh, yeah, I bet the F&W looks great on there, Dennis. I didn't even think about it for this one but I should have! 😊
Thank you Phil for taking my mind off of what's going on in the world today., Wood is good.
Larry in Silverdale
I'm right there with you, Larry. Thanks for watching! 😊
Beautiful bowl and adorable piggy. Very nice.
😊
Love your Piggly-Wiggly bowl. Color is perfect because Pigs are generally Pink.
😊
Another beauty to the collection Phil, simply gorgeous shape, contours and colours all in one oval, self ventilated bowl! Phew.....love it oink, oink! 😃 Have a great week and hope your daughter has a lovely Birthday too, take care. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us all, Phil. Bless you. 💛🫂☺️
Thank you so much, Sian! 😊
Wonderful color contrasts, I like the red heartwood. And whatever you turn will be a work of art, you really have an eye for what you need to do to bring out the beauty in the pieces of wood.
Thanks for letting us watch. 👍😉
Carsten
Thank you, Carsten! 😊
Did it again watched you twice . Good job Phil .
Thank you, Michael! 😊
Yes the deep red IS a beautiful color. Internally that piece of wood sure had some less than ideal issues.
I'm glad it sanded up as nicely as it did for you Phil. Given how quickly it would dull your tools, and I saw how quickly it happened, I'm a bit surprised how easily it surrendered to the sanding paper.
Some woods do just sand much easier than others. It always surprises me when some really hard wood sands like it wasn't even there.
Beautiful turning and as always awesome piece! Great to see you in the shop and making these great videos and unique creations. Enjoy your daughters birthday, and happy birthday to her! Take care and keep the videos coming. Love your work!
Thank you very much, Eddie! 😊
Another beauty. Thanks Phil
😊
Gorgeous work of art. The pig is marvelous. Happy birthday to your daughter, may she be blessed with many more, may she continue to be blessed and highly favored.💜💜💜
Thank you, Jo Ann! 😊
Beautiful eastern red cedar, funny think that many consider it a noxious weed. Also funny that beign a juniper its called cedar
😊
Only a noxious weed if you don't let it grow to its potential. 🤔😉
Beautiful bowl, Phil! It would look great filled with red and green grapes.
😄
Beautiful wood, love the colors. Thank you.
Thank you! Cheers! 😊
Now that i like. Top draw. Another triumph.
😊
We should call this one Arnold it's amazing how you keep these difficult pieces from breaking apart I noticed the cracks on the inside your a true master craftsman
Sometimes we get lucky, Rene! 😊
Arnold would be good! That show brings back good memories!
This is my first time watching your channel, and I really enjoyed it. What I love the most about this piece, is how much effort you put in to preserve the unique deformities, problems, and damage done to the piece of wood before turning it. The fact that you both respect and love how these differences, these non-conforming aspects of the wood is what makes the piece both unique and beautiful. And you did all you could bring it out that uniqueness and to preserve it. That’s what a true artist does. You do have an artist’s eye and I wanted to say, as a fellow artist, how much I appreciate it and I absolutely love that bowl.
Thank you for your very kind, comprehensive comment! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop you are more than welcomed. ❤️
Wow. That was an education. You are an artist. Thank you for making.
😊
THATS a awesome wood colour. beautifuly turned.
😊
It is indeed a beautiful bowl. I love the Percy Pig face too 🐽 The time here in Scotland is 1.42am and obviously I should be asleep, but with a new video from you, that just wasn’t going to happen until I had a top up of relaxing wood turning. A very Happy Birthday to your daughter too. Fifty is a fun decade, but it sounds as though she has worked that out for herself. Take care, stay safe and see you next video…
So kind of you to wait up for me, Anita, thank you! 😊
Lovely bowl Phil and yes the pig looks great! Awesome color I really like the contrast between the red and white edge, well done and thanks!
Me too, Al, thanks! 😊

😊
Wow! What Skill! Thank You!
Any time, P J, thanks for watching! 😊
That turned out beautifully! Cedar can be some dangerous wood on the lathe. You gotta stop often to check for cracks. I've had cedar blow apart on the lathe before. Happy Birthday Stephanie 🎂! She's 2 years older than me. Take care and GOD BLESS 🙏!
I'll pass it along, Stephen, thanks! 😊
Another great video, resulting in a lovely piggy bowl. Beautiful grain and colours.
😊
Great job, well turned and finished. Amusing Pig is a bonus.
😊
hello friends greetings healthy and successful always. thank you for sharing knowledge and always faithfully watching your latest things @👍
😊
You have pulled a lovely bowl from that log, the colour looks absolutely wonderful.
Glad you like it, Deborah, thank you! 😊
Beautiful piece Phil nicely done looks as smooth as you described it and base does resemble a piggy . Give your daughter a birthday greeting all the way from Canada 🇨🇦 see you in the next one 👌
thanks again Ron
Thanks, Ron, I'll pass it on to Stephanie! 😊
I agree with you, that’s one fine bowl and you did a great job creating it and narrating the video. It was fun to watch.
I like the colors on this beautiful bowl
Me too, thanks for watching! 😊
Beautiful Phil!! Turning the log in the orientation that you did sure gives it a very elegant shape. I love it! Thanks for that.
Cheers, Rick
That's what I was hoping for, Rick, thanks! 😊
Borer bees! Or carpenter bees are what made that hole. They are common around here and the bore into wood along the grain to nest. Even pressure treated. Beautiful bowl Phil. That was a bonus peice I sent and I'm glad you put your personal touch on it. Turned out really great. That peice was from my front yard and had been cut for about 6 years. I have a great deal of cedar already cut here so if you would like more, sat the word. I'm sorry I shortened your gouge. Happy birthday to Stephanie at half century!
So kind of you, Steve! I love knowing the history of a piece, too! 😊
Thank you Steve for sending Phil the wood. He did not know that the borer bee hole is perfect storage for a crochet hook in a yarn bowl. We have western red cedar, it also smells great, but does not have that wonderful red color.
It's always a good Thursday when I see a new Phil Anderson video on UA-cam! Thanks, Phil.
Thanks for sticking with me, Crystal! 😊
You never let me down Phil great peice and Happy Birthday to Stephanie
Thank you, Wayne! 😊
Oink! Oink! Yep, that’s a cute pig all right, Phil. I’d say that’s a keeper! It’s amazing the things you find in the pieces you turn, buddy. Another great video, my friend. You keep turning and I’ll keep watching! 👏👏😃😃
Happy turning,
…..Gord
Thanks, buddy! This one was pretty obvious but still, it's a PIG! 😊
It looks like a challenge to turn, and a bugger with all of the silica to keep a (dull) edge on your gouges. I've said this before: we use silica to sharpen our tools, and silica dulls our tools. How does it know what to do, and when? 🙂 Nice finished product, Phil! I'll bet your shop is aromatic now, too.
Take care,
--Paul
Haha, so true, Paul, thanks! 😊
Wow, fantastic Phil. It is beautiful. Thank You
Thank you too for watching, Ken! 😊
That’s one hell of a good looking pig 🐷 it is amazing love it 👍👍👍😊😊😊♥️
Thank you, Kelvin! 😊
First time I've seen your work and you do a great job. Love the finished piggy. Thank you for posting.
Welcome and thank you, John! I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment! 😊
You always amaze me you can see something in a block of wood that I can't even imagine and it is a very pretty piece another good one Phil thank you keep them coming
😊
Ur A Heck Of A Lot Better than I Am At Doing Woodwork 👌👍
Haha, well, you probably have your specialty, too! 😊
Beautiful bowl Phil. Glad to see you’re feeling well enough to put out your weekly videos with new projects. 👍🏼
Thank you very much, Mark! 😊
Wow ! Beautiful bowl. Nice job.
Glad you like it, Stuart! 😊
Excellent work, looks great !!!
Thank you very much, Bird Man! 😊
Well, im surprised! The bowl came out fine..a tribute to your skill!
Thank you, Brent! 😊
Wow Phil that is very beautiful take care and God bless
Thanks, Mike! 😊
That red grain is stunning ! Really nicely done as always Phil. I think the holes add a lot of charter to the piece. Just beautiful bud. Have a good weekend !
Cool, thanks, Jason! 😊
I couldn’t help but chuckle when you said oink oink 😂
LOL!
😂😂😂😂 nice one
I've never seen a prettier pig. That's marvellous wood and you understood it so well. Thank you to Steve for sending and you for sharing and happy birthday to Stephanie. Take care and see you soon.
Thank you so much, I'll relay your message! 😊
AWESOME THANK YOU PHIL 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻A beautiful bowl probably one of my favorites 🇺🇸
Cool, thanks, Travis! 😊
Another beautiful turning, the way you can see the beauty within, when it’s still a log is amazing. You truly are an inspiration. Thank you for taking the time to make and post your videos.
My pleasure, Ian, thank you for taking your time to watch and comment! 😊
Cedar is a very tricky wood to turn. Very prone to cracking. I’ve had the best luck using resin as a stabilizer and just incorporate the two with good results. Nice bowl Phil enjoy your advice and commentary.
Good to know, Trent, thanks for watching! 😊
No no no not resin☠️
@@davidharwood9552 Not for me, David!
That turned out nicely, Phil. It looked like a relative struggle with differing wood density and tear out. You dealt with it, nicely! I have four Mountain Ash logs, similar in size to your cedar, even having the rolled over side which you removed to create the tenon. I wasn't sure if I would try a side grain turning of any of the logs. Now, I think I will. Happy birthday to your daughter!
You can get some interesting shapes turning logs in this orientation, Jay. Have fun with yours! 😊
I love working with eastern cedar! The problems you had are very, very common with it. You did an incredible job on this piece, as usual!
Thank you, Brian! 😊 Cheers!
